    <Title>Free Food Through Spring Break</Title>
    <Body>
      <![CDATA[
          <div class="html-content">
          <p>If you always seem to miss out on free food, I’ve done the leg work and compiled a list of events where you can grab something to eat for free between now and spring break. If you’re like me, you don’t want to go grocery shopping anymore. And for meal plan holders, save a meal and enjoy something for free.</p>
          <ul>
          <li>SEB will be hosting <strong>Breakfast and Bingo</strong> in the Sports Zone between 9 and 11pm (yes, breakfast after dinner) every other week starting Tuesday, March 1st. The future dates are March 15th, April 9th, April 19th, and May 3rd. It’s free to play and free to eat! You can also win some sweet prizes. <a href="http://my.umbc.edu/events/6068" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Click here</a>.</li>
          <li>
          <strong>The Veg meeting</strong> will be held on Thursdays from 6 to 7pm in the Student Org Space starting this Thursday, March 3rd. They will be serving <strong>free food at each meeting</strong> as they discuss upcoming events such as the Worldwide Vegan Bake Sale, Meatout, and the Baltimore VegFest. <a href="http://my.umbc.edu/events/5931" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Click here</a>.</li>
          <li>Immediately after that, the <strong>Guitar Hero Competition</strong> will kick off in the Gameroom at 7pm. <strong>Free pizza will be served</strong>, and competitors will go head-to-head and fret-for-fret trying to win tickets to a Rams Head Live concert of their choice. The Gameroom will be renting projection screens for the event. <a href="http://my.umbc.edu/events/5961" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Click here</a>.</li>
          <li>Thursday must be the day to eat, because at 8pm <strong>Cake and Karaoke</strong> will commence in the Sports Zone. Sing a song and enjoy <strong>freshly baked cake</strong>, the perfect dessert for your veggie entree and helping of pizza from earlier! <a href="http://my.umbc.edu/events/6063" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Click here</a>.</li>
          <li>Tuesday, March 8th is <strong>Fat Tuesday</strong> right here in Flat Tuesdays (they should just call the pub Fat Tuesday, at least for that day!). They will be celebrating their most beloved day of the year with a <strong>delicious selection of food and drinks</strong> between 7 and 9pm. <a href="http://my.umbc.edu/events/5458" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Click here</a>.</li>
          <li>Then, right before Spring Break on March 17th, <strong>Shamrockapalooza</strong> will be serving <strong>free Irish-themed dishes</strong> in the Sports Zone between 7 and 9pm. It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia will be screened and craft tables will give you the opportunity to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in style. <a href="http://my.umbc.edu/events/5867" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Click here</a>.</li>
          </ul>
          <p><strong>Stayed tuned for more updates about free grub on campus. And if you sign up for the UMBCEats twitter alerts, you can have text messages sent right to your phone alerting you of where to find a free (or cheap) meal! <a href="http://twitter.com/umbceats" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Click here</a></strong></p>

    <Title>Gaddafi theatre?</Title>
    <Body>
      <![CDATA[
          <div class="html-content">
          <p>One headline grabbed our attention immediately: <a href="http://www.newser.com/story/113055/gadhafi-my-people-would-die-for-me.html" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">“Gaddafi: ‘My People Would Die for Me’”</a></p>
          <p>Considering <a href="http://www.un.org/apps/news/story.asp?NewsID=37642&amp;Cr=libya&amp;Cr1=" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">the news of all that violence</a> and killing going on in his country, maybe that’s really what Gaddafi thinks is going on. Talk about delusional!</p>
          <p>Gaddafi sat down with Christiane Amanpour <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/International/christiane-amanpour-interviews-libyas-moammar-gadhafi/story?id=13019942" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">for an interview</a> and explained that he won’t be leaving Libya anytime soon, while also insisting that it’s the will of the people that keeps him in power. Clearly, he doesn’t know what’s going on outside his own window. (Actually, he does seem to be in total denial of all of those protests.)</p>
          <p></p>
          <p>Seems like Gaddafi wants some US support since he blames the craziness in the Libyan streets on <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/02/24/us-libya-protests-gaddafi-idUSTRE71N4NI20110224" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">al Qaeda and hallucinogenic drugs</a>, but listening to Secretary of State Clinton, Gaddafi could be getting just the opposite.</p>
          <p><a href="http://whitehouse.blogs.cnn.com/2011/02/28/hillary-clinton-to-libya-nothing-is-off-the-table/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Clinton spoke up yesterday</a> to let the international community know that “nothing is off the table” when it came to that situation, and that the US military is ready to do what needs to be done in Libya.</p>
          <p>Anything can happen at this point, it seems! We’re keeping an eye out…</p>
